GameStop on PS4 demand: 'Selling out as quickly as we could stock them'

GameZone writes, "GameStop has acknowledged overwhelming demand for the PlayStation 4 console. In a release announcing the arrival of a new shipment of PS4 consoles, the retailer shed some light on the type of demand it experienced over the holiday season."

if "without alot of games" as some will like to believe (but i digress) and its selling out this fast imagine when infamous, drive club and other unannounced games starting coming out out.... get them while they are hot kids

yeah, I'm ridiculously stoked for Driveclub, more so than I am Infamous second son; Now I know I may be in the minority on that, but I've been waiting so long for a really good arcade/sim racer that has an awesome soundtrack and looks awesome as well.

On another note, really looking forward to The Order. Not so many games now, but my god...the future is looking mighty bright.

$400 is a very enticing buy-in price for a new console gaming system. Add to that Sonys track record: their number of exclusives, the quality of the first party games, the hardware, the consistent updates, PS+ being praised left and right (which it deserves). For anyone that reads gaming news and looks in to it they also know of all the added bonuses like the amount of F2P games to try out, The Playroom and its kid-friendly fun, the game streaming, game clip recording, the new controller and the praise it's been getting.

It just makes sense, Sony hasn't really stumbled with their PS4 launch. DriveClubs delay was they only real set back but even that game is getting a lot of attention because of how stunning it looks given that extra development time.

Ive never seen this demand before....but it's to be expected when you look at what the PS3 turned into, it went from "PS3 has no games", "glorified blu ray player" to having the most, best looking and best rated exclusives and the best value paid service on consoles.

The combination of the best 1st party devs in the business, the ridiculous value of PS plus, power, price and a 20 year track record of giving gamers exactly what they want are the reasons the PS4 is doing so well.

Got me a ps 4 when it got out.. and I have to say I just dont feel the hype.. I mean the exclusive titles sure for the singplayer its pretty aweseom to play on ps4.. but that's about it.. third party games I play on my pc cause it's just way better. And multiplayer games I will play on my xbox one.. cause xbox live is still miles ahead of psn..

I'd like to know what the situation was in each territory PS4 released in. In Australia the first two shippments sold out via preorder before they arrived, it looks like February's preorder demand is being met and they may not sell out.

1) Xbox community says that PS4 has NO games 2) PS4 is outselling the Xbox One everywhere 3) PS4 has a higher demand as no other gaming console in history.

Therefore,

Conclusion: It must be very humiliating for the Xbox community.

If I *assume* all your premises to be true. Then yes, the Xbox community should feel very humiliated because they said the PS4 has "NO games" when in fact, it does. Your second and third premise however, is a failure with relevance, as the truth or falsity of them do not contribute anything towards the conclusion. For example, how does PS4 out-selling the Xbox One make the Xbox community feel humiliated? It doesn't, unless you're one of 'those' people who only cares about the company rather than themselves.

So now the valid part of your argument only consists of the following:

1) Xbox community says that PS4 has NO games

therefore,

Conclusion: It must be very humiliating for the Xbox community.

Now let's look at the plausibility of that premise. Where is the evidence that the Xbox community said that the PS4 has NO games? I sure can't find it. Don't give me 1-10 examples, because is nowhere near enough to show the views of the Xbox Community. Even through Google I can't find it, so the plausibility of that premise is null, meaning all you have left is a conclusion with no valid premises to support it.

Looks like your argument is invalid. Disagree all your want, but only words will prove anything.
